Nintendo NX is ‘Reboot’ For Nintendo, Hardware Specifications Leaked
As per IGN’s recent Nintendo Video Chat which contained information from internal sources and NX developers, one studio who spoke to Peer Schneider called the platform a “reboot” for Nintendo. This could possibly mean a return to cartridges and possibly going back to the glory days of platforms like the NES and SNES.
Schneider’s sources also discussed how the NX was essentially a portable device that could dock to one’s TV to play games. As for other aspects, Peer himself is convinced that the NX will use memory cards much like how the 3DS handles its cartridges. A Share button is also possible though the “split D-pad” seems a little iffy, especially when Nintendo marketing has been focusing on it a lot recently. The NX will also apparently use infra-red though it won’t be the main means of controlling the games.
Detachable controllers were described as low budget and it’s possible they attach to the system. SCD with a dock and additional hardware also seems possible while Just Dance will probably use something to measure what you’re doing while playing.
Meanwhile, a 720p resolution has been cited as “credible” and “very highly likely”. Again, take all of this with a grain of salt and stay tuned to more information. The Nintendo NX is currently set to release by March 2017.

Hopefully the controllers aren't too cheap. Wouldn't mind buying it if they go back to cartridges. I would like to see Nintendo move forward and compete with Sony and Microsoft.

Honestly, I love the Nintendo handhelds and I didn't really have a problem playing my Wii U games on the tablet. If this thing turns out to be a powerful handheld device with optional TV connectivity and a fair price point, then I'd be OK with that.
For me the most recent generation of Nintendo consoles have been pretty big bummers with a strong focus on "innovation" over specs and a refusal to offer it's fans a serious online gaming experience (I mean seriously, how hard do they want to make playing Smash with randoms online?!)
I welcome the big brother of the 3DS but the Wii U can tell his family to stay at home.

Nintendo isn't really putting much into the new console, I know that the Wii and WiiU weren't top of the line specs either but I mean the technology is there now to where they could make an awesome console if they really put a budget on it.
